You're setting $DISPLAY manually, then, instead of using ssh + x
forwarding?  Strange choice, when something else could be setting the
env vars correctly for you.

Hm.  Does /tmp/dbus-pk6DzLBV0b exist?  I've had this problem before,
but I don't remember what caused it... off the top of my head, I think
it was that one of my environment variables ($SESSION_MANAGER perhaps?
 Or $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS maybe?) was set incorrectly.

I think you'll find that it's not just gvim, but any gnome app.
